Gone Girl
 
I finally saw "Gone Girl." Enjoyed it quite a bit. Lots of twists and turns. The marriage of Nick and Amy Dunne is not all sunshine and roses. I predict Rosamund Pike, who plays Amy Dunne, will get an Oscar nomination for Best Actress.

We saw it too and loved it. Kept your attention throughout the highs and lows of their relationship. Would highly recommend.

Always like Rosamund Pike. She played a great villainness in the James Bond movie Die Another Day .

I would recommend seeing it and would also Change the ending. I became frustrated throughout the movie.

Read the book and then saw the movie. Movie was very close to the book and did not disappoint. I did not even realize that it was almost 2-1/2 hours long till I was walking out of the theater. Loved it.

Spoiler alert-- only play this Quiz on Gone Girl if you have seen the movie.

Hi there,

There's a quiz at FunTrivia.com that you may be interested in:

Take a look at this recently written FunTrivia Quiz on Gone Girl. I only read part of the book and have not seen the movie yet. So, I only got 6/10 or so going on the part of the book I had read.

Just saw Gone Girl yesterday and it was probably the best movie we've seen all year long. I believe one thing that helped was that the author, Gillian Flynn, who wrote the book, also did the screenwriter duties. I understand that it was very, very close to the book from a friend who has already 'read the book, saw the movie.' My best advice is to use the restroom prior to seeing the two and a half hour film.

Ditto! Best movie I have seen in a long time. I usually think any movie or play over two hours needs a good editing. But, like you, I did not even notice. I finished the book one morning and saw the movie that afternoon.

I did not know that about the screenwriting. That makes sense. Thanks for the information.
